How to trade for bitcoin when it is bearish? Is it fixated on the FA, or do you still use TA. Please enlighten me, thanks.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but every time I tried to trade my Bitcoin in this bear mode, I'm losing it so eventually I decided not to do nothing, in this period of time. Just hold and wait for it to recover.

Lol yeah i don't think you're the only one there dude. The movement in this bear market leans highly in the negative drop so you have to be really careful to even make a small profit. Some people have the skill to do that.

Are you a newbie in trading? If yes then I advise you not to trade at this market situation because its too risky specially if you don't know what trading is. Other's suggesting shorting bitcoin, but mostly its done by experience trader.

For me the best method at this bearish trend, is to do nothing and just continue to observe how the market moves. Right now its on a green zone and probably might be going on a $7K run. If I where you, I will just buy at every dip and accumulate.

There are only very few exchanges are providing such facility of trading "short" with bitcoin markets. If you are serious to find one then I guess you must check with few forex brokers who are also providing bitcoin trading. I read bitfinex is providing such type of trading but I checked and could not find any new thing to do so.

Bitcoin is in bearish mode, bitcoin is in bullish mode, bitcoin is very moody, I can almost say it is bipolar. One day it goes up and we are all happy and we want to see 50k and we want to get rich and be happy and have lambo and get a penthouse, the next day we see bitcoin going down, we start to talk about how it will go to 2k , how we will all be poor, how we will be going to get food from shelters and lose all we have trying to drop the averages. I think the volatility in bitcoins mood is actually affecting our mood as well, heavily, most of us here have their days happy or sad according to how bitcoin is going. Lately we have all been quite sad.

To everyone rushing back into BTC from altcoins: What matters is that you learn why Bitcoin needs to be conservative in its development.

A rush back from altcoin to Bitcoin is wise only if there are big chances of earning in Bitcoin more than how much you earn in altcoin. The shift is accepted as long as you focus on the maximization of your profit. Besides, the Bitcoin trade when the market is bearish is not so profitable and hence it is preferred to hold the coins rather than trading. Moreover the bearish market does not last longer and ultimately recovers and move again to equilibrium.

Never try to trade in the deep, there is big possibilities that you lose big amount and cry at the end. I think those are only for the rich people they can play with their money since they have a lot of money.
It seems to me that today it is very difficult to get trade with the current state of the market. In any case, today after another drop, the market has turned a little green, and even the etherium has shown a plus of 6% growth.

Quite difficult, you can still make money shorting, taking positions in futures... but in a bear market like this trying to trade, if you haven't got much experience, is like they say "catching a falling knife".

Not the best moment to trade, so. I would rather buy and hodl for some time, like other members have suggested.

Depends on your strategy, and if you don’t know how to trade well better to invest and hold on good coins. Trading in a bearish market is very risky, your time is important here and if you just missed one candle sign, for sure losses will appear to you. Trade with good coins and fast moving coins, but it will take a lot of risk so be ready.

No more TA and FA is right at the moment. It's all the big players game and nobody mentioned we lose about 20BillionUSD on marketcap but when there is 5Billion that's coming in there were big news about that just to get small players enter the market. Here, for those who are telling you about their TA must have made atleast a bitcoin per trade, if not, they are not doing well.

You can use both. However, the market is really volatile and needs some correction sometime. I don't think we're entering bear market, this is just correction and profit-taking of some investors.

Maybe you should try Hodl if you have what it takes and that’s patience. Since the price is low according to many people, and there is this expectation from people that price will go up at any time, so why not just Hodl for a long time and see what happens if the price go up, maybe by the end of this month or so. Unless you prefer the short day trading, where you will trade with the daily up and downs and withdraw little profit.

Never believed in the TA mate because that is just not the right way to work with the crypto currency. I am 99% sure that only 1% of the TA's will be right or upto the mark and hence it is hard to find them. You better focus on the fundamentals. Right now the market isn't moving because of these kind of factor but more or less because of artificial deeds. I am sure that whales has got to do many things right now. They are manipulating this market because they want to get in and buy more than what they could afford because they know big pump is coming soon. Thats what it is all about, the bearish isn't true, its been done.

bitcoin has not been bearish for a while now. price is more stable than anything else. and as you can see it keeps on coming back to $6k bottom no matter what they do to it with their manipulation and panic sells because it is a strong bottom.

the way you trade right now is either buy the dips and sell the highs after the recoveries which can take about a week or even shorter. for instance buying at $5880-$5950 today and selling it above $6k could have been a profitable day-trade.
OR you buy the dips as your long term investment in which case you place buy orders all around $6k to fill them up slowly.

Don't trade against the market, move with it.

If you have been closely following the market (probably not) you would have seen that the only consistent aspect of this market is the constantly lower highs and lower lows. Purely based on this bearish downtrend pattern (if the downtrend continues), the lower low should be somewhere around $5000 and the next lower high should be somewhere around the $7000 level.

For the people thinking this is fud or I am trying to scare off noobs, seriously, get lost already.

How to trade for bitcoin when it is bearish?

I think that if you don't know what to do, you better stay away.

I mean, OK, gather all the info you need, simulate what would you do (based on the advises) and do this only if you are 100% certain.
And until then, stick to what you know and trade only on bullish market. Its time will also come...

I think you don't have to trade it, just waiting in some situations may be even profitable compared to stress you handle and profit you make.

Unless you want to go the leverage way, there is no way you can trade the bearish normally, than to get into fiat, and buy back when the trend changes, based on any of the time frame you have decided to use, and by that you should obviously know how to analyse the market trend. I would not advise leverage trading for anyone who is just starting their career in trading, but if you insist, you can go ahead to start shorting some markets on bitmex as that can give you the opportunity to trade the bearish modes of the listed markets.
